    Front store

    This store is closed to US 41 and Habor View Rd. It's cleaned and organized. Lots of frozen Key West shrimps, tuna... Best of all, they have live Maine lobster. Yayyy. Kinda pricey, roughly $22/lb. Inflation's price, my guess. Since my husband and I, we were craving for it so we just go for it . Life is too short isn't it? Enjoy while you can Service was so so. We bought 4 lobsters and I kindly asked for some ice to keep them alive, the lady behind the counter just flatly said NO. It's kind of surprised me because McCallister's seafood, Island's seafood and even Detwiler's Farm market gave away icepack when I bought seafood from them. So, folks, my advice is to bring a cooler if you want to buy seafood from here.

    This is a copycat Sharky's Boathouse Salad with Black Grouper purchased at CFD.  Turned out great!

    Got live lobster and dry pack scallops, both were top quality. Not much to look at, but it's my new spot for fresh seafood.

    I've gone here a handful of times throughout the years. I've never been impressed. This time…read morethough, will be my last. They changed the inside of the market. Before, you used to be able to view the live lobsters and see them pick them out. I used to like this, because I want to make sure the lobsters are alive and moving when they are removed from the water. Now, I don't know where they keep them, but I can't see them. I wouldn't trust that I am getting the fresh and very alive lobsters. Second, and most important of all, the prices are BAD. I called them a couple weeks ago for the price of lobsters. They told me 3 for $65. For me, that's extremely expensive. For me, I wouldn't pay that for myself, but my wife wanted me to cook some lobsters (would have been only her second time having lobster in her life). I decided to give them a try one last time and compare it to other markets that cost much less. If I could get similar taste at the other markets, I would no longer go here. Sadly, when I went in, I noticed the prices were now 3 chick lobsters for $75, or $25 a pound if you don't want 3. I asked about this, telling them they recently told me they were $65 on the phone... maybe not more than 2 weeks ago... and they said they raised their prices. Holy shit. That's not a $1 raise... or a $3 raise, but a whopping $10 raise. It wasn't too long ago that 3 of their lobsters were $25, and even that seemed expensive. I was willing to try them one last time at $65 (highway robbery bent over backwards), so I asked if they would honor the price quoted on the phone a few weeks ago, and they said no. So I walked out without spending one penny. These prices are terrible. TERRIBLE. Other markets in the area are charging $15 a pound for new england live lobsters. It's their store, they can charge what they want, but I won't buy anything if the prices are too high. Maybe this will go out of business like the port charlotte location? Maybe the snow birds don't know about other places to buy fresh lobster and pay the price? Well, if you know where to shop, you can find everything I've seen in this store for about 1/2 the cost. Tourist trap? I don't know, but buyer beware.

    Stopped in for lunch since they had lots of outdoor seating in the shade. You order inside at the…read moremarket counter but they make the food in the trailer outside and bring it to your table. They were pretty busy but the food arrived quickly. Lots of people were stopping in for fresh seafood from the market while a few were having lunch outside. The food was delicious and everyone loved it. The only issue we had was that I was hoping to just get fried shrimp for my daughter but the only options were coconut shrimp or the shrimp po boy. They said that's all they could do. Once we received the shrimp po boy, I was confused why they couldn't just give us that but without the bread. Oh well, she just picked the shrimp off the bun and loved it anyways. Just didn't seem very accommodating when they seemed so helpful to the customers ordering from the actual fresh seafood market. We will definitely come back.
